Teflon implements from the workshop of D. Ruud

       (  Original inventions, with inspiration from Gary Frost  )

Teflon Implements

Large Folder .  Small folder.  Splitting Knife .  Small spatula.
A.......... B..........C.......... D

 

Made in my workshop from pure virgin Teflon (PTFE), these tools were designed especially for book arts applications.  The slickness that gives Teflon its world-wide reputation for easy cleaning, also makes these tools gentler, less damaging, and less likely to polish or mar your projects. (The Large Delaminating Spatula is favored by paper conservators for removing layers of heavy backing material from fragile documents prior to immersion treatment).

 

A.......Large Folder

Large Teflon Folder

This and its smaller version are standard implements in the workboxes of countless craftspeople around the world.

$20 ea., plus shipping
(contact me - see below - about price break for purchases of 25 or more)

 

B ....... Small Folder

Small Teflon Folder

As in the larger version (above) this tool is excellent for direct application of local pressure onto delicate materials in adhesive procedures, and for paper folding.

$17.50 ea., plus shipping
(contact me - see below - about price break for purchase of 25 or more)

 

C.......Splitting Knife

Large Delaminating Teflon Spatula

A favorite among paper and document conservators.  Excellent for reducing thickness of paper mounts.

$27.50 ea., plus shipping
(contact me - see below - about price break for orders of 25 or more)

 

D.......Small Spatula

Small Teflon Spatula

The thin, rounded end is flexible and sensitive.  Unsurpassed for applying direct pressure onto small repairs using Japanese tissue (hold the "domed" tip dome-down, like a fingertip), and ultra-sensitive application of localized pressure, generally. Also excellent for delamination of labels or other small-sized items.

$22 ea., plus shipping
(contact me - see below - about price break for purchase of 25 or more)
